The makers of this road movie (husband-and-wife team Ben Falcone and Melissa McCarthy, who needed outside voices to check their married groupthink) probably intended a typical Melissa McCarthy gross-out comedy crossed with the sort of quirky familial drama of Little Miss Sunshine, Captain Fantastic or even something bruised and tender like Young Adult, but the result isn't funny nor touching, just loud, shrill, and dull, with the would-be family drama that develops as dropkick Tammy (McCarthy) and her alcoholic grandmother (Susan Sarandon) hit the road landing as lifeless as the jokes.
